Any news on where to get the new Brawler's invitation\/pass from though or do we not need to farm a new one this time?\r\rOn the PTR, characters that originally had access to the Guild retained access, while new characters need a new invitation. It is currently unknown where to obtain the new invitation, but we're working on finding it out. :)

Epic fail! I did brawler's guild, found it hard, had much fun, and got my heirloom fists. And I remember the experience fondly.

There are no rewards in this version of interest whatsoever. I had expected maybe a new heirloom slot (wrist, hands, feet, waist) or even just another ring (to counter the dumb fishing-event-locked one).

So, gonna skip it... too bad. I had also skipped mage tower due to lack of rewards. Too bad there too - I hear people had fun, but I ended up never really caring and Blizzard's work on that content was ignored. Don't need much, but need something to warrant the effort. (Mounts without any special benefit are also of no interest whatsoever).

Sorry, but as someone who completed 35\/36 mage tower challenges, I can confirm it was not "content that was ignored." And I have 35 no longer obtainable appearances, whereas gear would just become obsolete. They include a new mount and some new challenges, so I'll reserve judgement until I actually play through it. \r\rYou might criticise it better for saying it's not alt friendly, as there's no benefit to the war campaign, so why replay it once you've acquired the mount?

And you'll skip the brawler's guild because having fun and getting a limited time cosmetic reward isn't good enough for you? What is good enough for you then? If you don't like cosmetics, oh well, there's the ring that has a teleport on it, and the heirloom fist. But if you have those from last year, I can understand, but I personally want the mount that'll be gone next xpac.

I recently realized I care more about this type of content than most of what is considered standard end-game (raiding, M+ or rated pvp). I will sure spend a bunch of time there (until I get the mount at least).\r\rHere's to hoping they also end up adding content that is similar to the mage tower challenge. Looking back, it was definitely my favorite part of Legion.

So, no follower ?\r\rWhy do I keep having the feeling that every BfA traits are like a Legion downgrade :-(

All the "brawler's gold" stuff like rumbles or free graveyard are old afaik.

And if you go the downgrade path, Legion is itself a downgrad from WoD when you consider followers and missions : no mount, less followers and no secondary mission table

Should the encounters scale with item level? It's always possible to overlevel them by the expansion's end.

Enemies of the opposite faction in Zandalar and Kul Tiras now drop invitations, and a new vendor\u2013A. Shady\u2014 occasionally has them for sale in Orgrimmar and Stormwind.

Still not sure if we need the new one but other expansions did. Will see soon I guess!

Just because you can out-gear some of them, doesn't make them a complete walk in the park. I still have nightmares about that Draenei Paladin encounter, and I've still failed to defeat any form of Hexos.\r\rI'm not a mythic-level raider, but the Brawlers Guild still gives me fun trying to work out mechanics and the like, and if I'm in a position where I keep falling short, I know that maybe if I try again in a few weeks I'll be a bit better geared and clear that hurdle.

At least this time there are no new RNG shirts, but maan, now I gotta grind up to Rank 8 again. I hate having to sit in a queue between fights, it's tougher to get them down when you've got 10-20 minutes between attempts.

Has anyone been able to confirm which mobs the Blood-Soaked Invitation drops from in Zandalar for Alliance characters?

I haven't been able to really figure out where the invite comes from. There were some on the AH last night, so rather than jack around trying to figure it out, I just bought one at 20k. I don't really have anything else to buy, so my time is worth more than the 20k. But I'm curious to know where they drop or originate from.
